1) All OCC Silver wires version : Use various 5N OCC silver cables 2*15GA, 1*18GA + 2*7 solid cores (+24GA+26GA+28GA+29GA+29GA+32GA+32A) mixed with 1*12GA + 1*20GA Duelund tinned copper wires within both Live (L) and Neutral (N)
2) Duelund Silver Foil version : Duelund Silver Foil 2*V1 + 2*7 solid cores (24+26+28+29+29+32+32)GA of 5N OCC silver wires + 1*12GA + 1*20GA of Duelund tinned copper wires
The option is to use 1) all OCC Silver wires or 2) to replace 2*15GA + 1*18GA of 5N OCC silver wires with 2*Duelund Silver foil V1, while still keeping other OCC silver wires and Duelund tinned copper wires.
With critical listening, if Duelund Silver foil added to the same cable series, the midrange seem to enhance and more apparent slightly, with slightly more focus and pleasant warmer vocals. On the other hand, all OCC silver wires series seem to have a slightly wider/depth soundstage. However, note that the difference is very minor and not really significant as the midrange and soundstage for both versions are considered equally good to me.
Both versions are classified as same series with Pure Silver wires (either OCC Silver or Duelund Silver foil) mixed with Duelund tinned copper wires. Both versions have similar sound characteristics and sound equally good to me with similar pure silver sounds mixed with Duelund Western Electric sound characteristics. The decision factor is only if you like slightly warmer midrange or prefer a slightly wider/depth soundstage.

Xtreme Silver series: using Xtreme Duelund series as primary base wires, add in OCC Silvers wires as secondarily to create an unique (DUELUND + Silver) sounds
Ultimate Silver series: using True Silver series as primary base wires, add in Duelund wires as secondarily to create an unique (SILVER + Duelund) sounds
Ultimate Silver Series will have the best of Xtreme series and True Silver Series with very comprehensive sound of the Xtreme series mixed with the sound characteristics of Western Electric. Similar to Xtreme Silver series, the sound is very natural and smooth with quiet background, and also very musical. It also has the sweet, delicate, powerful and fast dynamic silver sound of the True Silver series.
A simple term for the selection of top 5 series with different sound characteristics:
- If you like vintage Duelund Western Electric sound, can select Xtreme series
- If you like modern 5N pure silver sound, can select True Silver series
- If you like Duelund Western Electric sound, but would like to add pure silver sound characteristic too, can select Xtreme Silver series
- If you like 5N pure silver sound, but would like to add Duelund vintage WE sound characteristic too, can select Ultimate Silver series
- If you like both the Duelund Western Electric sound and the modern pure silver sound equally, can select Flagship series
Both the Ultimate Silver series and Xtreme Silver series, are designed to have both the sound characteristics of WE and modern pure silver sound characteristics. And, although we could notice the difference, both also have the sound characteristics of WE and pure silver. Therefore, both series could likely match well with most of the High-end system.
Humble Comments: If you like both the WE sounds and the Pure Silver sounds, confidently, you can select either Xtreme Silver series or Ultimate Silver series. The Ultimate Silver series has very strong modern pure silver sound characteristics, however, with added Duelund tinned copper cables, it adds the musicality of WE, sounds become relatively softer and smoother. It is highly recommended.
Additional Comments: Xtreme series has strong WE sound characteristic and its sound balance, natural and neutral. True Silver Series has a sweet, delicate, powerful and fast dynamics sound, a typical modern Silver sound. Personally, Duelund/WE Series is always my favorite where sound more relax, details and musical to me. True Silver Series has a stronger tone, slightly warmer with richer full body texture sound. In short, a classic vintage WE sound for Xtreme series and a modern silver sound for True Silver Series. To me, both the sounds are on par and are equally good, it is really depending on your preferences and tastes. In another aspect, if your Hi-Fi system is based on tube amplifications, most likely you will prefer the Xtreme series, otherwise maybe you will pick Silver Series with Solid State system. I like the best part of Xtreme series is the musicality of sound and the best part of True Silver Series is the full body organic sound. Becasue of this reason, we created the mixture series of Xtreme Silver series and Ultimate Silver series.
1) Default: Red Copper Strip + White Strip on White Background

Cable Run-In: Audiolund cables are mostly multi-core design with various combinations of wires. Thus, all Audiolund cables will require a long time to run in. OCC Silver wires are thick solid core wires, will take even longer time to run in than Duelund tinned copper multi-strands of parallel thin core wires. The general guideline for run-in time, estimated 100 – 200 hours.
At first glance, take into consideration that what powers your HiFi-audio system is thanks to the quality of the electrical current which passes through all of your HiFi components. From the start the Ultimate Silver Series cable announces its remarkable qualities, but wait after 100 hours, because at first it was like a rising sun over the sea, but later it rises to the zenith to amaze you and the ears. With the Ultimate Silver Series cable, you will see the true capabilities of your audio devices, the improvement in soundstage and musical depth, the sound image is grandiose, the soundstage is more open and better articulated, a musical livery all in precision and finesse, and great transparency. It will be difficult for you not to stay glued to your chair, you will have immense pleasure listening to your music again. The new musical presentation is absolutely incredible. For example: The low notes of the piano are really superb and they impress. The instruments have a timbre of great purity. And a marked attention to the various inflections of the playing of the instruments, but what musical refinement. For violins, the strings are silky and precise. Here, here is an accompaniment guitar, like a new instrument that emerges and has never been heard before. Obviously, the Ultimate Silver Series AC cable will allow you to extract the maximum amount of musical information with the greatest stability. A big thank you to Danny, the designer and main creative hand builder, for your help and advice as well as your outstanding service.
As a music lover, I have been intensively involved with the HiFi topic for 33 years.
On this trip I tried out a lot of cables, some of which were excellent and extremely expensive, in order to optimize my system.
I discovered Audiolund by chance and tried them out: These Audiolund cables are the most balanced in my system so far, they can easily hold their own against all other products on the cable market that are many times more expensive (with dubious prices!).
The entire cabling of my HiFi system now consists almost exclusively of the Extreme Silver and Ultimate Silver Series and I am more than very happy with it.

I ordered one power cable 1.5 m Ultimate Series with Duelund Silver Foil and Viborg VE504Ag/VF504Ag pure silver schuko/IEC plugs Special Edition to connect to my power distributor and now there is clearer, great soundstage, perfect detail and musicality and with more working hours it still will sound better. It’s an excellent power cable really and so I hope making more orders in the future. Thank you much Danny and team.
Great definition；Dynamic & Fast ; smooth & liquid ; Great body & Nature layering sound. 😊🙏🙏🙏
